Friends at Angel Stadium

When we went to Angel stadium to see your brick and the game, Shawn and Ashley were there. We had our picture taken with them.  It was so nice to see them again.

Here is the brick at Angel Stadium that Autumn bought Dad and I the first year you left us.

You changed me

Davey

You changed me.

You changed who I am,

You changed who I will be

I am forever changed because of you.

You’ve taught me that love has no boundaries

You've taught me that there is more to life than what I know

You’ve taught me to really truly count my blessings.

You’ve taught me the strength of a bond between a mother and a child.

Life is unpredictable

Life is about the love you share, and the people you share it with

Life isn’t easy and there is pain beyond measure

But my life must continue, even though your life is gone.

 I must continue, so that I can change the lives of others

the way you have forever changed me.

I love you,

Mom

30 Years

Hi Davey,
Today Dad and I celebrated our 30th anniversary.  Hard to believe it has been that long.  When we had our 25th, Dad bought me a 4 day cruise.  It was awesome and I told him that the next time we went on a cruise that I wanted ALL of us to go.  I knew how much you, Brittany and Autumn would have enjoyed it.  Then little Raegan came along and I included her as well in my plans.  I even was looking for a Disney cruise for us to go on.  I wanted to go for our 30th anniversary but as time went on, it didn't look like that was going to happen so I was planning it for our 35th.  My plans will never come true with ALL of us.  I can't even think about going on another cruise because I so wanted to share that experience with you.  All the food, the dancing, shows and even gambling.  You would have had a wonderful time.  Maybe in time I can convince myself that we should go, but for now I will just dream of how it would have been.

Dad and I wanted to do something special for today so we found this really nice Mexican restaurant in Newport Beach, Ca. called Javier's.  Allot of people talked about  how awesome that it was so we made a date and even got reservations.  Dad ordered us strawberry margarita's-a pitcher.  The waiter warned us that it served about 7 but dad said that was fine.  We would be able to finish it.  It was good, a little weak but it was good.  The food was awesome and where we sat we could see the ocean.  When we got the bill, boy were we surprised.  That pitcher was $70.00!!!  That's right, we ordered a $70.00 pitcher of margarita's.  All we could do was laugh!  Here is a pitcher.  Doesn't look like $70.00 worth huh??

Here is a picture I took of us.  I am still learning how to work my Iphone so it isn't really good.  We are looking pretty old huh?  We were home by 8:15!!  Such party people.

Anyway, I miss you more and more everyday and wish you were here to celebrate with us.  Every holiday or special occasion is not the same without you here.  Everyday is hard but these times are the hardest.  You are suppose to be here as we grow old and pass these milestones.  We watched you pass yours as you grew up and now that we grow old, we planned on sharing these happy times with you.  Now all we can do is dream of what it would be like if you were here. There are no words to tell you the pain that we have in our hearts.  I know that you would not want us sad everyday, but for now that is the way it is.  It will never get easier but maybe it will get different.

We love you Davey,

Mom and Dad
